[quote who="natas2" reply="157" id="2691249"]But you can't say that all Masters are equal. That's fanboy talk right there.[/quote] Fanboy talk? More like logic. They are all master skinners. They are all equal. Everyone has their favorite skins/skinners, but that only depends on opinion, therefore it's arbitrary. There is nothing to debate here other than who you think is best, and personally, I don't care.

[quote]Some Master Skinners / Skins are better than others.[/quote] That's just a matter of opinion. They have all earned the title of "master" and in that way, they are equal. Any word, like "true" placed in front of the term "master skinner" is arbitrary. They are all master skinners.
[quote]You read it wrong, when i said the site is one of many which will come and go i was referring to the pirating site in question, not this site. [/quote] Ah, makes sense. Thanks for specifying. [e digicons];)[/e]
Sorry Bubbabyte, there's a lot of truth to what your saying, and I agree with most of it. My previous statement was rude, unnecessary, and inconsiderate. With that said, I wouldn't say this site is "one of many which will come and go." When I read that, I threw a fit like a little girl and cried and ran into my room and locked the door. In all seriousness though, the mods and community at this site support one another, and in that way I believe wincustomize is unique. Maybe we can't c

Thanks for the update, XX. I had forgotten about this screensaver. It's a great one! [e digicons];)[/e]
[quote]Putting the content in a new protected format that required a new version of WB (say 7.2) to run would allow us to tighten up both things at once.[/quote] Boom headshot. [e digicons]B)[/e]
[quote]regular skinners tweak other skinner skins, for what purpose?[/quote] I always have to tweak the coding of the window frames for my blinds to work properly because my laptop is stupid. Also, I've updated several different (older) skins to be windows 7 compatible.
[quote]Here's a thought.... Pain in the bum but..... ALL Master WB skins are sold "protected"....and cannot be altered/tweaked. Buyers who wish to tweak it can contact the Master and obtain a second 'unprotected' copy directly from him/her via email. The Master 'marks' each version emailed out differently...in a way only he/she can determine [digital signing in the hidden bits of a Jpeg, etc]. Then... The tweaker can tweak....<
[quote]yeah if we could protect them and still be able to tweak them, that would be awsome.[/quote] Solve this problem - new wincustomize community contest?? [e digicons]:rofl:[/e]
To one of the nicest guys in the wincustomize community, Congrats Redneckdude! DesktopX wouldn't be the same without you. [e digicons]:sun:[/e] [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e] Keep it up, ya son of a one eyed, yella-bellied prairie dog. [e digicons]XD[/e]
[quote]we need to do more here to protect our master skins[/quote] I definitely agree but I would hate to lose the ability to tweak master skins that I purchase.......for some reason or another, I've had to actually fix some issues I had with master skins, not to mention I like tweaking them to my liking. This protection plan limits users like me, who actually pay for skins. Maybe we should try thinking of another way to protect them. Things get kind of complicated becau
[quote]there's a very, Very, VERY small chance, like 1 out of 999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999 that we really ARE living in a super advanced computer program or we very well all might be someone else's dream. When they wake up, or unplug that computer, our universe will end in a flash. Kinda scary when you think about it. Even Einstein supported some of those crazy nut job "theories".[/quote] I love having conversations about these theories, and even coming up with theories of my own.
[quote]Tim may just send you the update, but that won't fix the problem...[/quote] right, and I think Laguna is the only skin I own which has been updated. All my others are relatively new......
The artists who create these master skins deserve something back for their hard work and dedication. It makes me sick that people always try to cheat and dodge paying for things............especially when master skins are usually only a couple bucks. I mean c'mon, a few bucks isn't going to hurt you. Show some respect for these artists. I'm sorry Kitty, and I hope that site goes down.
[quote who="RedneckDude" reply="369" id="2688180"]Have you contacted Essorant?[/quote] I suppose that's the next step. I guess I was just hoping the problem would eventually be caught and solved, but it might be a better idea to just talk to Tim. Thanks for the help, RND. [e digicons]:sun:[/e]
[quote]How do they get these stars to do this?[/quote] Adult Swim gave John Reilly his own show "Check it out with Dr. Steve Brule." It's definitely the dumbest thing I've ever seen but for some reason I can't help but constantly laugh at John Reilly's face. I never liked Tim and Eric, I agree it's disgusting. I swear John just does that show as a complete joke, but considering he is the director and creator of the show, he can probably pull some strings. Actually, I think it's alread
Ah yeah, same result [e digicons]:\[/e]
Not sure if this has been solved yet - I would like to (re)download an updated premium theme I purchased a while ago, but when I download from my registrations page, I get the old, not updated version. Specifically, I bought "Laguna" before it was updated for windows 7. I can't seem to download the updated version through the "my registrations" page. I've also tried having the registrations emailed to me by stardock and they weren't updated. Laguna is probably m
Have you ever seen the show "Check it out! with Dr. Steve Brule" ? *Sigh, John C. Reilly...
[quote]Mario Sunshine is probably the Worst Game ever with Mario in it.[/quote] Not your traditional Mario game, considering instead of killing things, you're cleaning them. However, I still enjoyed it, I thought it was a neat idea from Nintendo, and it at least tried to show their efforts to change from the traditional Mario story (which they then learned was necessary for a successful Mario game). With that said, it still ranks low compared to other Mario games.
Congrats everyone!!! Good to see these great skins keep pouring in every week! [e digicons]:grin:[/e] Thanks for the pick, ID. I appreciate it.
Wow, that jetpack looks like a ton of fun! I would definitely like to try that out sometime. [e digicons]^_^[/e] As for the flamethrower...........I guess we have to give the kid credit for not injuring himself, but personally, I don't think that's much of a good idea. If anything, it's just providing motivation for other kids to attempt (more) dangerous things. Playing with fireworks is one thing..........but this takes that to a whole new level.....

yeah, I got this same error when running "windowblinds" along with "deskscapes" and "HoneySpiceNeedsToBeSlapped." Usually all three of those programs run fine together........hmm, weird. [e digicons]:thumbsdown:[/e]
